I love Christmas!! Everything about it is wonderful... the lights, the pine tree smell, hot chocolate, snuggling, and even the baking. I've never actually made Christmas cookies before. I know, I know, bad mom right? Nah, better late than never. It was so much fun! The kids actually got along, my very own kids who agree on nothing sat at the same table for hours and didn't disagree once. We might just bake every day! Ok, maybe not every day, but more often.
I wish Scott would get into the spirit, but the only thing he sees about Christmas is the money involved. Money spent I should say... One the tree, on gifts, just about everything. Every other year I have let it bother me to no end and ended up being miserable. I decided this year to stop hounding him about enjoying the holidays. I suppose I can't make him love something he doesn't. So the kids and I will celebrate how we want and if he'd like to join us, he can. I doubt he will, but maybe we will all be happier in the long run. Boy, is he ever lucky that I love him so much...
